I am damaging this 50%dr boss at a rate of x1 damage per second. If I curse the boss with amp, what will be the new damage per second, x2?
1) x2 = 3 * x1
2) I am stupid so I'll pretend it's a logical fallacy

i think he's a non-native speaker so he is just trying to sound smart with that logical fallacy talk. it's like watching a chimp try and use a knife and fork.

this is the initial question:



as to your question, 0 is the least amount of DR you can have, 50 is the most. so that's why you'd ask that.


omg, this is how i know im dealing with a retard


Im the one telling you , you would WANT to compare 0 dr to 50, im not asking you that, im telling your why would you NOT compare different DR's, thats the guys original question,


was that too heavy for your grey matter?


however you can NOT change the other factor in your equation, if you want any kind of meaningful results, you cant compare 1 apple to 2 apples and compare them two different scenarios.

you have to keep it the same point of reference, ie stick to 1 apple for scenario one,and 1 apples to sceniario two then you can claim its triple , double, quadruple,


but you are inept, you have come to the conclusion that you do Triple the amount of damage with damage reduction, and Double without! :lol:

why are you converting to a "new" dps? you DONT ,

you compare the two based on what damage your originally were doing, then things fall back to normal , not bizzaro math world where you live

no one is. its:

0 dr amp'd

vs.

50 dr amp'd

that's only 1 factor changing. both targets are ampd

Way to look like an idiot. The original damage you do to a 0dr target is 1000. The original damage you do to a 50dr target is 500.. Congratulations, you played yourself.

you guys are converting the dps after dr is applied to some end mulptiplier, , which is a fallacy as I have mentioned already

0% DR = 100dmg-> with amp 200dmg (x2.00)
10% DR = 90dmg -> with amp 190dmg (x2.11)
20% DR = 80dmg -> with amp 180dmg (x2.25)
30% DR = 70dmg -> with amp 170dmg (x2.43)
40% DR = 60dmg -> with amp 160dmg (x2.67)
50% DR = 50dmg(X) -> with amp 150dmg(Y) (x3.00)

for some reason u find it necessary to divide Y by X and think the result is a valid #, its not, thats why u end up with this illogical conclusion that you are doing triple the dmg with DR,

youre only doing 1.5x the damage, because 150/100(original unchanged amount) = 1.5
